Abstract
A crystal printer for fabricating a crystalline part, where the printer includes a crucible for holding a magnetic material that will be fabricated into the part. The printed also includes a heat sink being operable to cool the crucible and a plurality of shaped induction field generators disposed around the crucible and being operable to generate time-varying shaped magnetic fields. A controller controls the plurality of induction field generators so as to generate the time-varying shaped magnetic fields in a manner so that the magnetic fields interact with the material to heat selective areas within the material so that unheated areas in the material are cooled by the heat sink to harden the part into a desired crystalline orientation.
